PRESS COMMENTS.

Cleveland Leader: 1t is pleasing to
note that in the Western States, Indian
names are being used more generously
than in the East, and it is sincerely to
be hoped the day of senseless imitation
in nomenclature is nearly past.
Rochester Herald (Dem.): We believe
that the Presidents determination not
to attend the st. Louis encampment was
in itself unfortunate; but having come
to that conclusion, he was particularly
unwise in writing such letter.
New York World: When a Southern
railroad sells or accepts a frst-class
ticket it should be bound to furnish first
class accommodations, without regard to
the shade of mans skin, the color of
his hair or the cut of his clothes.
Buffalo Express: A reunion of Ma
ton in which its President would be an
element of discord? Impossible, Mr..
| Cleveland! You are sarcastic, or else
inclined to believe all the severe things
the fiery old campaiRners have said of
Won.
Philadelphia Record: Mr.. Randall
proposes to "crush out the malcontents''
in the local Democracy. Did Mr.. Ran
dali ever battle successfully with the
well-developed mosquitoes ofthe Jersey
coast? These are scarcely less persisten mt
| than the malcontents aforesaid.
Philadelphia Bulletin: Every Presi-
dent has suffered from political HOSTILE
ty, but Mr.. Cleveland ought to take care
lest he suffers from personal contempt.
That will be worse for his reputation and
for his usefulness while in Office than al
the enmity of mere party politics.
Rochester Democrat: The perfunctory
support given Cleveland's st. LOUIS let
ter by the Democratic press, affords an
interesting study. In few notable in
stances the communication is unequivo-
cal, but the great majority of the papers.
while YEARLY praising the spirit in
which the remarkable epistle was writ
ten, deplore its righteousness and be-
tween the lines indulge in covert pro-
family.
New York Mail and cypress: Mr..
Cleveland's blunders have come from
the very peculiarities of his nature.
They are symptomatic of chronic, COM
plete and incurable case of utter lack OF
the sensibIlities and sentiments that
made the North practically unit, dur
ing the war, In spite of all the lurking of
blatant disloyalty of individuals, and of
the stolidity of such persons as Mr..
| Cleveland.
Milwaukee Euening Wisconsin: There
is no good citizen who does not feel sym
pathy with the President in the predic-
ament in which he finds himself. But
he has made his own bed. He has
made it as it is, through mental and
moral ignorance and narrowness. 1t
was a miracle of chance even in our
chance-iaden politics, that man so rad
ically untitled could ever have become
President

supreme Court DECISIONS.


The Supreme Court has just handed
down several quite important decisions,
the syllabi in the cases being as follows;
f. 4. Vanstrum, respondent, vs., Ill. z,
Liiengren, appellant, Syllabus;
The words payable the 10Th day of
May, 1855" written and signed by the
drawee upon bin of exchange drawn
upon him, constituted aqualitled accept
ance. The word accept" so written
and signed is also an acceptance. Ii Is
no defense 10 the acceptor that there
was no consideration as between the
drawer and payee of a bill. Even
though bill of exchange be really, but
not in terms, given To the payee for the
purpose of collection, the payee may
maintain an action in his own name
against the drawee upon the acceptance
of the latter, Where an acceptance was
given to the payee in consideration of
his agreement to make certain pay
ments, the fact that he violates that
agreement does not constitute failure
of consideration, so long as he remains
legally obligated by his promise. The
order refusing new trial is affirmed.
DICKINSON, j.
George j. Exley and Mahala Exley, re-
spOndents, VS.. Charles j. Berryhill
and William c, Besser, appellants.
Syllabus:
An appeal from an order refusing ex.
cept upon terms to open default and
allow an answer to be made is not effec-
tual to stay the entry of a Judgment upon
the default. In action To avoid mort
gage and statutory foreclosure of the
same for usury, the summons having
hn.
ing demanded in the complaint, may be
granted without proof being made, upon
the default of the defendant to answer
Under the statute plaintiff may have
such relief without offering to pay the
money actually received with interest
A Judgment entered upon default may
include relief such as was demanded in
supplemental complaint which haC
been served. The relief granted being
in substance and effect such as was pray
ed, although not in form the same, viii
be allowed TO stand, no prejudice result
ing. A particular transaction, consisting
of transfer by the creditor TO the wife
of the debtor of property of the debtor
held as security for an usurious debt
and the taking of mortgage security from
the debtor and his wife upon the same
property, to secure the same debt, con
sidered as not removing the faint o
usury. The fact that an usurious mort
gage has been foreclosed by the sale un
der the power does not prevent equita
bic relief being granted. Judgment af
! iirmed. DICKINSON, j.
Rudolph l.. Miller, respondent, VS.. Tn,
Supervisors of the Towns of Beaye
and Leroy, appellants.
Upon a trial to determine the amour
of damages to which land owner is en-
titled for the taking of his land for
highway when the fact appears uncon
tradicted, that no special benefits &c
crued to the land from the laying of tn,
road and that the land taken was valu
able, the bare, unexplained opinions O
witnesses that the land owner had sus
tanned no damages is not sufficient +
justify setting off against the.actual dam
age from the taking of the land anythin
upon the ground of special benefits. Or
der affirmed. Dickinson, J.

The selection of Minnehaha Falls for
the proposed Soldiers Home is nota re-
suit that was expected, neither can it be
said that at this time it strikes the peo-
pie generally as being the most desir-
able Of the several points which were
more or less favored by the committee.
To be sure the surroundings of Mime
haha are pleasant, but with the rapidly
increasing population of this part of
what may be properly termed Minneap-
oils, it will be but few years before it
will be hemmed in on all sides by bust
ness, which means hurry and hustle.
The intent ola soldiers home is to
provide a place where the INDECENT vet
eran may pass the remainder of his life
IN quiet enjoyment, free and separate
from the throngs found in busy city.
1t cannot be hoped that such will be his
privilege at Minnehaha. While the do
nation Of the grounds was princely
gift for the home, it will eventually
prove expensive TO the tax payers Of
the state. Minneapolis will desire to
have it made INTO grand park and St.
Paul will desire TO be included in the
deal. As a result, it will be but few brief
years ere an appropriation ola hun
dred or two hundred thousand dollars
will be voted from the pockets of tax
payers to purchase additional grounds
on the st. Paul side Of the river and half
as much more for the construction of a
bridge to connect the same with Henne-
pin county. But the die has been cast.
The only thing for the interior portion
ofthe state to do is to gracefully submit
and trust that the action OF the commits
sion will result for the best.

PORT HURoN's BIG FIRE.
Disastrous ConfIagration Among
| the Mills

Disastrous ConfIagration Among
the Mills.
PoRT Huron, July ia most de-
structive fire broke out yesterday after
noon in the engine room of Cody &
Csmpbell's planning mill. corner of Water
and 4th SITS. and spread with frightful
rapidity to their large lumber yards and
sheds, and from there to several small
tenement houses belonging to the Har-
rington estate on Pine st.; thence to w.
r. Mulford's furniture store on Water
st. and TO a building occupied by r.
Caster, builder; thence to Forester &
VinceDt's grain elevator and small adj
jacent tenement. The fire vas intense
" hot and seemed to lick up the piles Of
seasoned lumber and the sheds and
buildings with unusual relish. The fire
department fought the flames brayely,
often to their peril, as for some time it
was feared the whole block would go MP
in flames and if the block, the heart OF
the city would be In imminent danger.
The wind gradually changed to their
advantage, and with the hard work of the
firemen the flames we're finally brought
under control. The Farmers Elevator,
owned by McMarran & Co., was SO heat
ed from the flames from the planning mill
that ii was expected to burst out in
flames, but slight shift of the wind
saved 1t. Loss. $4,000; insurance less
than $4,000, One of the firemen fell
down from the effects of the heat, and
was medically cared for and sent to his
home. The fire was the largest Port
Huron has suffered from in years.
